Where is there any indication anyone on the Fed side cares? The facility in Florida doesn’t have permanent running water. theweek.com/crime/allege...

That’s pretty much exactly what they did with the facility in Florida. No permanent running water. theweek.com/crime/allege...

There is no nuance here whatsoever and I’ve muted both of you, bye now

The Grauniad isn’t running for office. It is however desperate to be looked at, and for whatever reason decided a while back to pursue hate-read clicks rather than grow or maintain its previous readership.

At this point the Grauniad loves using “woke” in headlines even more than the Daily Mail. Embarrassing to see a once-decent paper flounder so desperately.

“The Times reported that Bennet said in a meeting with staff members that he had not read the essay before it was published.” I’ve no idea why anyone who isn’t paid to analyze this slop by a rival paper bothers with it.

Was it something other than the same open contempt when the editor who published that Tom Cotton piece during the 1st Trump term acknowledged he hadn't even bothered to read it? www ppl.politico.com/news/2020/06/07/nyt-opinion-bennet-resigns-cotton-op-ed-306317

Try taking your own advice here instead of making inane suggestions to enlarge it, then.

I’ll be sure to check with you next time I want to tell someone they're not making sense 🙄

It’s cool that at least half a dozen people have this exact same response every time the Guardian posts this non-story. Murdoch rag the NY Post needs the attention and readers here need witty replies.

Jail time for publishing crummy books, also a brilliant idea — the US prison system isn't large enough 🙄
February 8, 2026 at 9:40 PM
Brilliant idea dude, American cops are famously literary and attuned to subtleties and enforcement of this would be easy for them.
February 8, 2026 at 9:34 PM
I would not have guessed that was what you were expressing. Illegal on what basis? And why not simply say that you believe it ought to be illegal rather than be oblique about it?
February 8, 2026 at 9:15 PM
Who said or suggested it isn’t legal? Knee-jerk defensiveness of this sort of garbage speaks for itself in terms of thoughtfulness and relevance.

I appreciate the broad point that attention to this is preferable to silence, but the Guardian and other UK outlets covered this same topic in 2024 and perhaps earlier, for ex. www.theguardian.com/media/2024/j...

Brilliant choice to circulate these concerns, doubtlessly made in good faith, to a broader readership. 🙄

Is this meant for his fans or for old IT dudes meant to assume he’s someone vaguely cool?
February 7, 2026 at 7:44 PM
Incredible how lacking in ambition the Grauniad Food section is these days. Endlessly rehashed filler like this that’s been making the rounds 10+ years and cookbook promo recipes no one’s bothered to read through even once.

They did that during Trump 1st term too. How does everyone have such short memories. www.bbc.com/news/world-u...

Never re-started mine after what happened during the first Trump term and can’t say I’ve regretted it. Remnick only puts real thought into decisions like these afterwards, if they flop hard enough. www.bbc.com/news/world-u...

This is a remarkable @nytimes.com split screen:

A huge 3,526 word + photos profile on Sen Britt who "can't stop thinking about the boy ICE detained"

But Rep Jaoquin Castro- who actually got Liam Ramos out of detention & back home- gets no interview, no pix, just 116 words inside a story. WOW.
